Which Debut Album Do You Think Will Have A Bigger Impact, Meek Mill’s Or Kendrick Lamar’s?

There will be two major debut albums dropping this month. The West Coast’s, Kendrick Lamar, will drop, “Good Kid, m.A.A.d City,” October 22nd. While MMG artist and Philly native, Meek Mill, will drop, “Dreams & Nightmares,” October 30th. Which album do you see making a bigger impact on music today? Also who do you think will have a bigger first week?

Shout out RASHAD for the question. Feel free to leave questions to post in comments or on twitter.

this is a no brainer. meek mill is just the next mmg rapper and another rapper from philly wit a peedi crack type flow.

kendrick has the ENTIRE west coast on his back. east coast drop albums all day plus meek isnt very complex in his ryhmes. kendricks album is huge just to be in stores cuz nobody fucks wit west coast rap at all

Kendrick Lamar by a long shot, even though Meek is nice. Kendrick Lamar’s records have a lot more substance than Meek’s. Only rapper that can match Kendrick with substance is J.Cole.

neither one will have a impact on hip hop, they’ll drop and we’ll forget about it in about a month. Meek might put up some decent numbers but with his redundant content anything after this might flop. Kendrick??? I don’t see any big numbers for his album, his style is over looked in today’s culture. but wha’ts funny about Kendrick is, he’s under rated but still over rated lol ..

Meek Mill. Kendricks better lyrically but his songs are mediocre at best, hes a mixtape level rapper. Meek will have the better album and numbers.

meek mill just sounds like every other rapper on a mixtape just empty lyrics and no substance,rappers that sing about drugs,women,fame,money come a dime a dozen.he just lucky he have a network of rappers like rick ross to back him up.kendrick lamar has substance and seems different.im surprised he was even from the west coast cuz he does not rhyme about hood music which is what the west coast is known for

rocky said kendrick is his favorite rapper…of course he talking besides himself

As it stands Kendrick lamar has mad material out. Fire all day. Been listenim to him since i peeped the c4 mixtape.his songs are incredible on his debut section 80. Hii power is 1 of the best songs i herd in my life n im 31. He is bringin a style like no other. U can u compare him too? Like he says “he can reach the ppl and still keep it ghetto like an 87 regal with a tree airfreshiner

Just look at his Kendrick lamar drops the k.dot mixtape or better yet just type his name n you will be amazed at all his material. His progression through the years n his beginning is amazing. Kendrick lamar hands down is a top mc in the game already. No one can out rap this dude on any song any feature he shines. Distinguishing himself from everyone. The recipe for success

Kendrick’s album will make a way bigger mark then the same old “started out with a O, Ended up with a rollie” raps. I like Meek but come on.. I also think kendrick will sell more cuz he has alot of loyal ass fans. Meek Mill fans would rather spend their money on a dub of mids

k dot hands down. im afraid meek mill is not able to innovate anymore. while kendrick…… oh well kendrick.. enough said

Yea Meek is good, but he is not game changing, he can rap and has energy, but something is just missing from him that would put him to be the best thing out since like 50 cent, also he is kind of one dimensional. So I give it to Kendrick Lamar, with sales though I think they both might lose,cause they coming out when Taylor Swift coming out and sales wise thats a big big loss. For Meek it’s gunna be a real debut where it doesn’t make a huge impact and numbers will not be big, but with more albums from him he will probably grow and get better.

Kendrick Lamer owns California automatically while Meek Mill takes Philly So no doubt about it Both artist are hot right now but Meek Mill MMG gat the first week..but for me i am buying both albums. Lets goooooooo

Meek Mill is probably gonna out sell kendrick . Its sad they dont play recipe or swimming pools on the radio in atl . but i gotta hear that big booty hoe song every 5 minutes . I think kendicks is gonna be a better cd artistically . but both are good for the culture . Yal need to do a report on radio . Cause it fucking sucks ! they dont even try anymore ! i dont even know why they have dj’s up there they only play 4 songs all fucking day ! its sad . theres no variety on the radio anymore . they dont break records anymore . satellite radio is the shit ! you listen to that for a week your like are they trying to brainwash us on FM radio or something ? cause its really no comparison .

Kendrick will have the album of the year AGAIN. That much is certain. Meek will sell well but he’s already released some of his big hits on his tapes. Hopefully he has some more in the tank for the album.

Kendrick Lamar is what hiphop needs….go check out a leaked track called “the art of peer preasure” his shit is heart felt.I fuck wit Meek but his shit sounding like everybody else shit. Like that “young & gettin it” song is commercial as fuck….kendrick shit will be a classic Meek shit will come & go but i wish them both success.

@thekiddd taylor swifts audience/fans are totally different from the fans of kendrick lamar/meek mill. TOTALLY different. I don’t see that effecting their sales at all.

On to the topic, as a lot of people have stated, Kendrick Lamar will have a better album with better lyrics and substance. Meek milly will sell more in his first week. K dot will have a way bigger impact on hip hop today for the simple fact that he is a BEAST on the mic.

Kdot is a MC and Meek meek is a rapper. It’s hard to say who’s going to sell more after a week but I hope it’s kdot cuz he’s one of the realist out there after J Cole

both rappers are boring.
klamar is trying too hard to be different like someone here mentioned.
down the line guys will see that. swimming pool of liquor? smh.

meek mill just tries to rap to rap. to me its not even like he has a passion or gift for rapping. he is just saying words that rhyme and talks about stuff that fame gets you. he doesn’t make you think. none of his rhymes make you say wow, that’s deep. everyone of his songs stay on the surface. yea the beat is hot, yea the song may be catchy , but they are not songs you can play years from now and feel like your mind is being exercised…

Meek is a industry rapper. Same formula. I mean c’mon one of his single is in full auto-tune. I can’t fcuk with that shit dawg. Kendrick is the J Cole of west coast. My dude can spit plus he got Dre’s backing. But he ain’t gonna out sell the pop rapper, Meek will out sell him, but Lamar’s album is needed in hip hop.

^^^ I think you’re a teeny bopper posing as somebody who knows about hip hop. Your corny ass Tyga screen name is a dead give away. What the hell does “trying too hard to be diferent” mean ? stop trying to analyse Kendrick, you sound dumb.

and you obviously have never heard Meek Mill’s Tony Story or other tracks off DC1, he had heart felt raps on that. Just stop.

my last post was @ “MAKEitNASTY”, I wasn’t expecting another person to post before me -_-

And who ever saying Lamar tryna be different got shit twisted. Jut cause you ain’t sounding like a mainstream rapper all of a sudden you different? Gtfoh with that shit. Lamar been sounding like this from day one. You niggas will put that label on anyone who don’t sound like YMCMB or MMG. Lupe tryin too hard to be different. Lamar not. Meek tryna to sound to sugary mainstream. Say that b.
